Hi. Welcome. Good job on the GMAT.

Just a quick note, you do not need to ever list your high school activities or grades. They no longer matter. This is graduate school and only your college experience matters at this point.

You don’t need to translate the GPA so you are good.

I think you have a good solid profile. Consulting can be tricky but having some data background and if you have good communication and presentation skills, you can ace the interviews.

I think the school choice makes sense in light of the GMAT scores we see at these programs from Asia male applicants. I don’t have much more to add except perhaps UNC. They do not bad with MBBs and consulting.

Thanks a lot for your comments. Just wanted to know if I have a chance at INSEAD Singapore? Should I give it a try or it will be money down the drain?

Hey, can you tell me about scholarship as well?

It’s a little tricky and tough to get scholarships in top business schools. You have to be really better than other applicants and in someway be desirable and attractive to a particular program to qualify for a merit scholarship. Think about it as football teams that are trying to recruit the best soccer players. Someone to play for free and some need to be attracted with large payments… you have to be really good to be attracted with a scholarship

Hey! I have a query regarding GMAT, Do we get to choose the business school we want to apply and does gmat send marks to 5 chosen colleges for free?

When you write your GMAT you get to choose 5 school to which GMAC sends your score. You don't have to pay separately for it if you choose to apply to these schools.

You're free to apply to any other school you want to, but you'll have to pay GMAC to send your scores to those schools.

The fees for sending your score is NOT within the application fees which you have to pay anyway (unless you have a waiver)
